>>14309842Hmm that's the very base sketch I did for her. Maybe I screwed depth/cellshading... uh I dunno. I'll save what you said for tomorrow. Thanks for input. I just guess I need sleep at this point.

There's no real conflict. At all. Shiny and Cadance are both separately interested in each other and so the 'conflict' is just that the jerk... acts like a jerk and doesn't win. Shiny and Cadance don't really do anything, they just decide to ditch buck. THE END.

Also while Shiny got dorky Cadance is still boring as fuck and didn't do anything other than calculate that her and Shiny were meant to be.

>>14310373Hey, I'd clean her up too. Nothing goes in any hole it's not supposed to, and we get clean before anything "dirtier".After all, a long shower with lots of intimate washing and cute innuendo is a great way to foreplay.damn captcha, you kinky

>>14310599>Fluttershy is a ghost now>she can only speak in whispers and is translucent in bright sunshine>Some fillies notice her while they're trying to get their ghost-catching cutie marks>nobody else notices anything out of the ordinary about her

>>14310918I was going to write something that was going to invoke show discussion but then again you use the word "epic" so I'm pretty sure no matter what I post you'll keep up the shitposting charade.

There's children throwing snowballs instead of throwing headsThey're busy building toys and absolutely no one's deadThere's frost on every windowOh, I can't believe my eyesAnd in my bones I feel the warmth that's coming from inside

>>14311145>what could be the reason for the main 6 to go to the castle>is "Castle-Mania" related to the opening episodes, or stand alone?>what could the Pony of Shadows be?>could we get some backstory on the princesses and/or the castle?And the 2 new screenshots.

Face it, at this point it's easier to talk about tripfags and barely MLP related fetishes than the actual show.

>>14311197Can you honestly provide 5 good reasons to remove interesting character traits in order to make her a generic happy-fun-time princess?

There's no development going on here, it's not taking the traits and concepts and moving them to a higher and more sophisticated form, it's taking them completely, absolutely crushing anything after "I'm a pretty princess look at me!".

It's degradation and I consider very close to flanderization but instead of taking this one trait and maximizing it, you to the lost of said trait and fill it up with boring garbage.

In fact I'd go as far to say that slight flanderization of all the ponies traits would be 100x better then we are now, and provides a net for the character's writing while still allowing progress in the right direction.

This is why Abed from Community is the best actor on the show, it's not about seeing him improve as a person it's about seeing interact in the world and seeing his cold,logical and disecting personality zoom in on the characters of the show or meta in general which is a good break from (I'm smart, I'm handsome, I'm hot, I'm a housewife and I'm a jock) which could be applied to my little pony as well.

You favor uninteresting because it functions which is exactly why she'll never see any "progression" after this and only being three seasons in, all we can really hope for right now is that some villain take away her powers and becomes a seasonal arch rather than 3 episodes of something that looks promising and then 23 episodes of boring "princessy" garbage that I feared when I first watched this show.

>>14311186I think that the bitching about Princess Twilight Sparkle will be all but gone when season 4 comes out. People will be more or less focused on what the Tree of Harmony means,the Elements of Harmony and what Meghan screwed up.

>>14311242>nothing has changedA surprisingly good series made to sell toys is turning into something more and more like what we all used to think when we heard "show made to sell toys." Maybe. I'm hoping S4E1 will surprise me.

So if you now hate the show, hate the ponies, hate the fandom which MLPG is part of, and don't think it's going to get any better, why don't you go talk about something you actually enjoy? There's shows on /tv/, cartoons and comics on /co/, and games on /tg/ and the v's.

Generals gathered in their massesJust like witches at black massesEvil minds that plot destructionSorcerers of death's constructionIn the fields the bodies burningAs the war machine keeps turningDeath and hatred to mankindPoisoning their brainwashed minds... Oh Lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves awayThey only started the warWhy should they go out to fight?They leave that role to the poor, yeah

Time will tell on their power mindsMaking war just for funTreating people just like pawns in chessWait 'till their Judgment day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turningAshes where the bodies burningNo more war pigs of the powerHand of God has struck the hourDay of Judgment, God is callingOn their knees the war pigs crawlingBegging mercy for their sinsSatan, laughing, spreads his wingsOh Lord yeah!

>>14311367Because I have narrow interests, I only enjoy very ancient video games (That /vr/ doesn't even discuss) and I don't watch television because all of the interesting stuff is either strewn with violence/degeneration.

Shit, I don't even know why I come around considering I don't even contribute and all the shit I filter (In my defense, it's stuff from /mlp/ that people post here to get responses, but whatever). I think I should give all my comics to my sister and just delete the /go bookmark.

>>14311324FIM was lightning in a bottle. it's never going to happen again, and Hasbro will make it certain to kill any chance for it to be something more than just another ad for little girl toys.

>>14311367You know, I should do that. I'l probably start with /a/ since /v/ a shit.

>>14311421>Shit, I don't even know why I come around considering I don't even contribute and all the shit I filter (In my defense, it's stuff from /mlp/ that people post here to get responses, but whatever). I think I should give all my comics to my sister and just delete the /go bookmark.

>>14311504I'm exaggerating for humor, though the last few episodes have really done a kinda 180 of the established setting and the whole second season goes in a completely different direction from the 1st without really resolving that much

>>14311592Look, half the reason why things like Transformers have done so well is because it was generally a good cartoon, especially compared to MLP back then. Girls would just move on to what the show for boys because it was better and boys would never watch the show for girls because a) its not as good and b) you'll get beat up and called a faggot

Now for the first time the girls cartoon is good on its own, passably more so then the boys, so naturally boys will move over to it

So remember Amon and the whole non benders vs benders strife going on? Well he gets dead (probably) and the whole conflict just.....fizzle into nothing. Now a whole new story and theme is going, mostly involving the corruption of the spirit world and the northern water tribe oppressing the southern because the chief is a dick and Korra's uncle. Also an eccentric capitalist is a secondary major antagonist. Pretty much the eniter first season might as well have not happened and it would make no difference.

Also the last 2 parter went into the history of the first benders and Avatar. Remember in The Last AirBender how people learned to bend from the animals teaching them, liek the sky bison flying or the giant mole rats? Well you can forget all that, it was all giant lion turtles always.

>>14311802Oh yeah the animation is still solid. In fact I really enjoyed the two parter as it went into a completely different style, like old Chinese/Japanese paintings to represent a flashback of the ancient past. The action sequences can be great and over all the animation is very nice. And a lot of the time I can personally enjoy it for fun stuff like Bolin becoming a movie star

But then you also have unnecessary filler like a side story about flying leamer training

And the current story itself isnt bad. It's just inconsistent with the previous season and a lot of major established things in the setting, and when you do shit like that is shows you either don't care or you don't know what you are doing. It's still a good show, but it took a considerable step down.

>>14311901Yeah, I thought I saw some anons talking about him last thread. I didn't pay it much mind since that sort of thing was around before I even started watching the show>>14311920Oh? He's Nonymous? He was talking to me earlier. I couldn't remember him but he seemed to remember me. Seemed like a nice fellow.

think of a pony.any pony.your favorite, your least favorite, whatever.got one?good.he or she is in your world for a 24-hour period, and has taken on a human (not EQG. human.) form to avoid unwanted attention.what will you do during the day she's here? where will you take her? what will you show her?

>>14312609Fuck I just cant get over the fact that shes taller than all of them now. That totally ruins their height ratio and makes her stand out where before she was great but on even terms with the others.
